The best method?
Well, I just got a set filled at a local tire shop for $10 per tire.
That's the best method that I've found! :biggrin2.gif:

CBH,.... LOL, yeah that's a pretty good method alright. The nearest place I can get it done (at a tire shop) is over 30 miles away.

Question,... did they pump the fluid into your tires??

I don't have a way of doing that, but I do have a tire machine and I've thought about "breaking" the bead on one side of a mounted tire and just pouring the fluid in, then airing the tire back up and re-seating the bead.

Trust me, you want tubes in your tires if you are going to put fluid in them. I speak from experience...

CBH,... did the $10 per tire include the cost of the fluid?

.... if so, that sounds like a REAL good deal.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
